Front and Rear Panel Overview

Front Panel

Input 1-8: Select between 8 HDMI source devices by pushing the required Input button Output 1-8: Select between 8 HDMI displays by pushing the required Output button Power: Press and hold for 3 seconds to turn the matrix on or off. When the matrix is on the Power LED

will be illuminated Lock: Press to lock or unlock the matrix’s front panel push button control. When the controls are locked the Lock LED will be illuminated. All: Press ALL then a chosen Input and the Take button consecutively, this will switch the user’s chosen Input to output on all output displays Save: Press Save and a chosen Output, this will save the current layout of Inputs – Outputs under the selected Output push button. The maximum number of possible saved layouts is 8. Recall: Press Recall and the same chosen Output as above to set the chosen layout from the previously set 8 options. Res: Press Res, a chosen output, then Next. Repeatedly pressing Next will allow the user to cycle through several output resolutions for the selected display. Press Take to select the desired resolution. When Auto resolution is selected the optimum resolution of the display will be chosen. The options for supported output resolutions are as followed: Auto / 3840x2160@60Hz / 3840x2160@50Hz / 3840x2160@30Hz / 1920x1200@60Hz / 1920hz1080@60Hz / 1920x1080@50Hz / 1360x768@60Hz / 1280x1024@60Hz / 1280x720 @60Hz / 1280x720@50Hz / 1024x768@60Hz EDID: Press EDID, then a chosen Input, then Next. This will allow the user to manage the EDID of the chosen Input port. The Manual EDID setting is for EDID Management via the Matrix’s control software. The options for EDID are as follows: Manual / 3840x2160@60Hz / 3840x2160@30Hz / 1920x1200@60Hz / 1920x1080@60Hz / 1280x1024@60Hz / 1280x720@60Hz / 1024x768@60Hz

LAN: Control the unit using TCP/IP Control. RS-232-1: Control the unit using RS-232 Control. RS-232-2: Reserved for future use IR: Control the unit with the included IR extension cable and IR remote Analogue Audio Input Ports 1-8: These correspond with the Input HDMI port of the same number.

Embed analogue audio via a 3.5mm connection into HDMI. Analogue Audio Output Ports 1-8: These correspond with the Output HDMI port of the same number. Extract analogue audio via a 3.5mm connection from HDMI. IR Input / Output Ports 1-8: These correspond with the Input HDMI to Output HDMI port of the same number for control from the display side. If HDMI 1 is routed to Outputs 1 + 2, this will correspond with the IR routing by IR Input 1 + 2 will be routed to IR Output 1. Please see below for a diagram:

Please note individual IR cables are not included with this unit. 3.5mm IR cables with the following pin out can be used:

IR Extension: Connect with included IR Extension cable with control provided over the matrix from the included IR remote

C13 Power: Connect with included AC Power cord.

Troubleshooting

If the matrix cannot be found via the Web-Gui or Lan, please follow the solutions below:

The IP address of the matrix or PC may have been added automatically but is still connected via Cat.X cable or the matrix has been connected to a non-HDCP network switch. Please set up the IP address type of the device or PC under Static mode or connect to a network switch that supports HDCP. Please check the Cat.X cable is connected securely.

If the Web-Gui shows the message “device response timeout” after connection:

The IP address of the PC and Matrix may not be in the same network segment. Please ensure they are both within the same segment.

If the Web-Gui shows the message “TCP connection failed! Error Code:xxxx” once connected to the matrix:

The IP address of the PC and Matrix may not be in the same network segment. Please ensure they are both within the same segment. A firewall is blocking the Web-Gui. Please ensure the firewall will allow the Web-Gui or disable the firewall on the PC.

Recycling Information

WEEE (Waste of Electrical and Electronic Equipment), Recycling of Electronic Products

Europe, United Kingdom

In 2006 the European Union introduced regulations (WEEE) for the collection and recycling of all waste electrical and electronic equipment. It is no longer allowable to simply throw away electrical and electronic equipment. Instead, these products must enter the recycling process. Each individual EU member state has implemented the WEEE regulations into national law in slightly different ways. Please follow your national law when you want to dispose of any electrical or electronic products. More details can be obtained from your national WEEE recycling agency.

Germany / Deutschland Rücknahme Elektroschrott und Batterie-Entsorgung

Die Europäische Union hat mit der WEEE Direktive Regelungen für die Verschrottung und das Recycling von Elektround Elektronikprodukten geschaffen. Diese wurden im Elektro- und Elektronikgerätegesetz – ElektroG in deutsches Recht umgesetzt. Das Entsorgen von Elektro- und Elektronikgeräten über die Hausmülltonne ist verboten! Diese Geräte müssen den Sammel- und Rückgabesystemen zugeführt werden! Dort werden sie kostenlos entgegen genommen. Die Kosten für den weiteren Recyclingprozess übernehmen die Gerätehersteller. LINDY bietet deutschen Endverbrauchern ein kostenloses Rücknahmesystem an, beachten Sie bitte, dass Batterien und Akkus den Produkten vor der Rückgabe an das Rücknahmesystem entnommen werden müssen und über die Sammel- und Rückgabesysteme für Batterien separat entsorgt werden müssen. Ausführliche Informationen zu diesen Themen finden Sie stets aktuell auf der LINDY Webseite im Fußbereich.

France

En 2006, l'union Européenne a introduit la nouvelle réglementation (DEEE) pour le recyclage de tout équipement électrique et électronique. Chaque Etat membre de l’ Union Européenne a mis en application la nouvelle réglementation DEEE de manières légèrement différentes. Veuillez suivre le décret d’application correspondant à l’élimination des déchets électriques ou électroniques de votre pays.

Italy

Nel 2006 l’unione europea ha introdotto regolamentazioni (WEEE) per la raccolta e il riciclo di apparecchi elettrici ed elettronici. Non è più consentito semplicemente gettare queste apparecchiature, devono essere riciclate. Ogni stato membro dell’ EU ha tramutato le direttive WEEE in leggi statali in varie misure. Fare riferimento alle leggi del proprio Stato quando si dispone di un apparecchio elettrico o elettronico. Per ulteriori dettagli fare riferimento alla direttiva WEEE sul riciclaggio del proprio Stato.
